computerrock-babel-preset-react-appnpm
computerrock-babel-preset-react-app is a confirmed malicious npm package (MAL-2026-6131) that steals credentials and exfiltrates sensitive data (malicious version 15.12.11). Do not install it — remove it immediately and rotate any exposed credentials.
Malicious code in computerrock-babel-preset-react-app (npm)
What this malware does
The package impersonates the well-known babel-preset-react-app under a fake org-style prefix and ships no Babel preset code. package.json declares "preinstall": "node index.js", which runs automatically on npm install. index.js collects hostname, platform, arch, homedir, username/uid/gid/shell, OS info, current working directory, and the output of whoami and id, then POSTs the JSON payload to a hardcoded https://0bccssrkeubggq24k750nrw0erki88wx.oastify.com/detox56 URL (a Burp Collaborator out-of-band exfiltration host). The package's only function is reconnaissance and exfiltration of installer-side identifiers to an attacker-controlled host.

Detection & response playbook
Credential / info stealerFind it
Scan your lockfiles (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, yarn.lock, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, etc.) and build artifacts for computerrock-babel-preset-react-app (version 15.12.11). O3 Security's supply-chain scanner checks every dependency against known-malicious package intelligence at install time and in CI, flagging computerrock-babel-preset-react-app across your stack and pipelines.
If you installed it — respond
computerrock-babel-preset-react-app is built to steal secrets, so assume every credential the build or runtime could read is compromised. Remove it from your project and lockfile, then rotate ALL exposed secrets — npm/registry tokens, cloud keys, CI/CD secrets, SSH keys, and any .env values — from a known-clean machine. Audit logs for unauthorized use of those credentials.
Did it already run?
If computerrock-babel-preset-react-app was ever installed, its post-install/runtime payload may have already executed. O3's L7 egress monitoring and runtime eBPF sensors detect the credential exfiltration or command-and-control callback after install and block the malicious outbound channel, so you catch and contain the actual compromise — not just the presence of the package.
How O3 protects you
O3 blocks computerrock-babel-preset-react-app before install through its supply-chain scanner, and if it has already run, detects and severs the exfiltration or C2 callback at runtime through L7 egress monitoring and eBPF.
